The Hidden Game by bjcoupland
21 parts Ongoing
Amelia Swanson's parents were murdered when she was four. The killer was never found. Twelve years later, she cracks a cipher that her mother left behind-and it leads to one of the most powerful men in the country. But asking questions about the past is dangerous when you live in a surveillance state. AI assistants monitor every word. City walls separate the worthy from the "uncounted." And the conspiracy that killed her parents is very much alive. Now Amelia and her best friend Marv are being hunted. By a system that erases inconvenient truths. By enemies who've killed to keep secrets buried. And by something that stalks her dreams-something that knows her name. The deeper she digs, the more she realizes: her parents weren't just victims. They were players in a hidden game. A game where the stakes are power, control, and the truth itself. And Amelia just stepped onto the board. ---- What to expect: - Conspiracy thriller with psychological horror elements - Found family & loyal friendships - Surveillance capitalism critique - Mystery that compounds (every answer raises new questions) - Slow-burn investigation with escalating danger - NO romantic subplot (friendship-focused) Content warnings: Parental death (past), trauma/PTSD, child in peril (flashbacks), violence, paranoia/surveillance themes ---- - New Transmissions: every 7-10 days - Current Phase: Book 1, Season 1. In progress - updating regularly. - Future Plans: Book 1 has 80 Transmissions. 3-book trilogy. 9 seasons in total. (over 750,000 words)

66 parts Complete Mature
Shortlisted for the Wattys 2025! Living in a human town, Esmara has little knowledge of the seven kinds of shifters who rule the world outside of her safe walls. The horrific rumours and tales she hears from visiting travellers are enough to keep her satisfied with her simple and quiet life. But when her safe haven is suddenly disturbed by her own kind, she needs the help of those she is terrified of most. Amidst the chaos, Esmara is confronted with feelings she does not understand. Why is she so involved with the werewolves? Which side does she choose when the line between friend and foe begins to blur? And who is the dark-haired stranger she so desperately longs for? Esmara is determined to unravel the truth behind it all, even as the looming darkness seems to draw closer. ----- "Honestly, it's one of the best werewolf stories I've read: the plot, the writing, and the characters are all amazing. I can't wait to read the second book! And please don't stop writing, you truly have a great talent!" (Eastis) "I started when you only had a few chapters, and have been on the edge of my seat since."(Vettechk) "I can't explain how much I loved this book." (Abbeys3088) "This was one of the books that helped me get out of my reeding slump. When I started this book and realized how good it was i couldn't stop reading! And I still don't get how this book didn't make top 10 in the werewolf category yet, because it deserves it!" (Hannubear) "This book is one of the most well written here in Wattpad. I loved it sooo much. Your writing is so beautiful honestly!!" (Reliverelove)

?Highest #12 in '#technology' (17 June 2018)? ⚛ Highest #228 in Science Fiction (30 May 2018) ⚛ "It's alright." I waved my hand dismissively. "I'm allergic to bullshit." ♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧♣♧ Maya Scoren is unique. But she's not the only one, there are nine others supposed to be besides her; two of which never made it past their mother's womb and one who's incompatible. What makes them special, is also what makes them dangerous. Ripped from their normal, day-to-day,school life, family and friends with no warning, they find out who they are. And why they're alive. But fitting back into that normal life they missed so much is proving to be hard. Especially for Maya, who has a tendency to get herself in trouble and extraordinary situations ENTIRELY her fault. (She'd rather die than admit that of course) Old life brings the problem of boys, unwanted advances, homework, teachers and of course, a boyfriend with she had a rather uncharacteristic meet-up. Scott, Sed, Andy are her childhood friends all the way with her in this. Almost all the way. They didn't expect her to change or to come back at all and they are having a HARD time adjusting to the new Maya. She's dangerous, she's hot and she knows it. She has done a lot in the past two years that will catch up to her and stuff after that which refuses to stay hidden. Controlling CEOs, sensitive boyfriend, an obssessed boss is just the tip of the iceberg. And I'm not even touching the problems at her school. Will all this unwanted attention put her in trouble? Author's note: this was my first story ever. It has no proper plot or story but it's fun to read! Also, lots of typos. And grammar mistakes. Tons of them. Tons. You have been warned. (Actually not that many but you've still been warned)
